[CODE4LIB] Transcription services
Has anyone used a transcription service to do captioning for a video, or anything similar? There are many transcription services that charge a per minute fee. I'd like to get a recommendation on one that worked well for someone. -Wilhelmina Randtke

We have hired services in the past but I always felt they were overpriced and the quality wasn't great. We started doing our own for certain projects (you can add your own transcriptions in YouTube, which is handy, and then it will automatically provide translated versions for you). I always wanted to try putting them up on Amazon Turk and seeing if we could get some good transcriptions on the cheap.

I highly recommend 3playmedia. For short in house self made videos we use YouTube and then clean it up.
